The Toronto Chamber Orchestra draws its players from the best orchestras in Toronto, with principal players from the Toronto Symphony, the Canadian Opera Orchestra, the Canadian Ballet Orchestra, Tafelmusik and Aradia Ensemble. Many of the players also play baroque instruments and all are well versed in stylistic issues from the eighteenth century to the modern day. As such, the orchestra’s approach is to extend to all periods of music the transparency and purity of tone one achieves with period instruments. In addition to Principal Conductor Kevin Mallon, the Toronto Chamber Orchestra has worked with international soloists including Patrick Gallois, Tom Stacy, Guy Few and Nadina Mackie Jackson and conductors Nicholas McGeegan and Alain Trudel. The orchestra has made sixteen CDs for Naxos.
